I added a secret code feature in my game, an upgrade for one of your units. so you typed in the code and it broadcasts a message, the basic sprite disappears and stops spawning, and the other starts spawning after 10 secs, but the unit won't spawn. the link to the game is here, you can remix it to veiw the script and tell me what to do. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/201901016/#player

Could it be that Colossus is spelled wrong in one instance?

Well Stealtstartest, that was a problem I tested many times, I kept changing it and retrying it, but it wont work. I'll double check on that. Thanks for the help, I'll put you in the credits.

The problem is that the costum you have it set to is blank

when I receive [ Wake up]
repeat until <(nap)=[1]>
add (code) to (projects)
insert (unnecessary code)
wait until <not<(brain)=(fried)>>
if <(time)=[2 a.m]> then
set(nap) to [1]
end
end
wait((2)*((60)*(60))) secs
set(nap) to [0]
broadcast[Wake up]

never mind i was looking at the wrong one

Colossus hasto be capilalized or it doesn't work try doing this

when this sprite clicked
ask [enter code] and wait
forever
if <<(answer) = [Colossus]> or <(answer) = [colossus]>> then
broadcast [colossus]
end
end

Won't make any difference, Scratch isn't case sensitive when comparing strings.

thanks everyone. I'll look into this. Sorry I haven't checked back in awhile. Its a secret code, so I suppose you guys can have that as your reward.

Cbleston, Thanks for your help, I tried the new script but it didn't work.

That's because that script doesn't make any difference (Scratch isn't case sensitive)

Why there isn't any

when I receive [ v]

block when you have a

broadcast [ v]

block?

H4K, the thing is that I have included a

when I receive [ v]

block. however, it is not in the same sprite. If you would look, you would see that in the colossus sprite, there is in fact one of those blocks.

I will double check.

They have a receiver… in sprite “Colossus”

@memedoggo

“answer” is not case sensitive
Also remove the needless forever loops you have inside the “answers” checks.

thanks asivi. I'll take a look at this.

P.S. I am aware that it is not case sensitive, I have been, I simply thought from a scratcher above that said so, which got me to believe that I should give it a try. I now find it a waste of time, and unnecessary, to remove the script chunks.

You probably modified it after the project was loaded for me

Can you please explain what's the problem? What sprite is the basic sprite?

Actually, H4K, that chunk/block/etc was added as soon as I set up the cheat codes.

The problem is that a cheat code isn't working. The sprites that the code are associated with are as follows:
Sprite 1
Goliath
Colossus

I'm off to spend my free time. Thanks for the help.

It might be working it is just set to 9 seconds until it shows and how are you spelling colossus because the name of the sprite and what your broadcasting is spelled differently. one has two l's and one only has one l so if your like me and trying to spell the sprite name then it doesn't work but if u spell it the right way then just wait nine seconds and it works.

Hope I helped!

thanks cbleston, The

wait (9) secs

Was actually the cause of this whole thing. Glad for the help, and it may still need some work, but it is overall good to go and in a second draft. Thanks again.

No Problem
